Once again.. dancing as fast as I can

Once again.. dancing as fast as I can

We are in the mode of helping family..  which usually runs into what I call the DANCING AS FAST AS I CAN..  MODE..

This time it is rotation of vehicles..   giving mine to our granddaughter so hers can be fixed..  Now we have to hit the pro’s as the guys can’t figure out why it chose to run some times and not other..   Ruling out bad battery,  it is not..  bad connections to the battery.. it is not..    So today, her car goes in to the shop..  So yesterday the King traded out cars, so she can get the boys to school and her to work..  while the car is in the shop. 

In the meantime the brakes have gone out in our big truck.. so appt. for it is on Thursday..  After having it the shop last week, for transmission flush that was due..  Plus picking up boys ..from school..  making sure Dad picks them up and brings them back the following day..  So Mom can get them to the next program..

On top of all this.. we are dealing with dr. and hospitals and etc..  phone calls going back and forth.. as THE KING twisted his back 2 weeks before Christmas..  Only to find out he can’t get an MRI until he has a Xray..  according to insurance rules.. Which by the way they advertise on TV… no referrals needed..   you know the ad where the woman is at the dr.  and he ask her why she was there.. she said to get a referral.. he says she doesn’t need one.. she says “yes, I do” after 3 rounds of that… he says, “with PACIFIC SOURCE YOU DON’T NEED A REFFERAL…  AND SHE SAYS… I don’t have Pacific Source, so I do have to have a referral.. and then the ad goes on to repeat that..   THEY LIED… The King needed not only a referral.. but he needed a Xray one first before they would consider a MRI.. all of this we found out 4 days of going down to the hospital..  and then phone calls. Then going down to the dr. office getting the referral from the dr. and back to the hospital to be told that is fine.. but we need the insurance co .. ok..but they would contact the dr. office to get that.. and get back to him..   they didn’t  .. he called. Finally it came down the line.. Xray first. And yes. Go get it NOW.. 15 minutes before they closed …with the slowest check in clerk ever, before he can actually go to the xray dept..   Trying to keep him calm as he is upset at the slowness…  I asked her, if I could stay and do the paper work and let him go.. NOPE.  Got a routine.. going with the routine..  HUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM..  FINALLY..  the paper work is done.. AND I,  the old nurses aide who never dies.. took him on the faster wheelchair ever to get to the dept.    Have to wait until today.. for Dr. report..  but Nurse did l tell him, when he called AGAIN.. it involves his L 3   L4  vertebrae … PATINENCE IS NOT MY HUSBAND’S FINEST POINT.. 

 SO… TODAY ..  is my husband waiting for a call from the dr. to find out what to do now?  MRI?…  physical therapy? Or what? And also waiting to hear what is wrong with the granddaughter’s car and please LORD.. have it be less than $500..  

 

DANCING AS FAST AS WE CAN..
